...Laboratory. TIME owes its readers the totality of facts to avoid misinformation. For many decades, the U.S. has worked with farmers and the scientific community to increase crop yields, reduce the intensity of pesticide and fertilizer use, improve water productivity and promote conservation tillage that reduces erosion and sequesters carbon. Substantial progress continues in all these areas and was not sufficiently addressed. Last year alone our agencies invested more than $1 billion in research, development and demonstration of next - generation - biofuels production from nonfood feedstocks, which remains the core U.S. strategy. Our government is committed to advancing technological solutions...
...have been shouting into the wind for years about ethanol. Certainly, its widespread use would reduce our dependency on fossil fuel, but we would simply be burning a different - albeit renewable - source of carbon. Kevin Russell, Goolwa, South Australia...
...does. First, suggestions that Brazil is a major culprit in global warming are not supported by scientific facts or reliable statistics. Second, the growth rate of Brazilian emissions has been on the decline primarily because of decreasing rates of Amazon rain - forest deforestation, which is the main source of carbon emissions in Brazil, and increasing use of ethanol fuel. Furthermore, from 1970 to 2005 the use of ethanol in our energy mix has averted the emission of 644 million tons of CO2, the equivalent of Canada's annual emissions. When compared with the unsustainable energy patterns used in major developed...

...still waiting for that conversation? Senators Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain all support mandatory reductions in carbon emissions--a first in a presidential campaign. But they haven't hashed it out with one another the way they've argued the fine points of, say, health care. In three dozen presidential debates, climate has rarely come...
